Join me for this Northern Lights themed setup in my bullet journal for December 2021! This month I was inspired to create paintings of the Aurora Borealis after seeing the phenomenon in person for the first time and being absolutely awestruck 💛

Did you opt out for silicones, too? If not it might be worth a quick research.
You can always add a tad bit of water to your brush when using acrylics it spreads the paint way better
I’ve not seen the Northern Lights, but I have seen the Southern Lights. The first time I saw them I was skiing in Antarctica when the horizon started glowing…it looked like city light at first. Then the lights climbed up into the sky and danced around going from white to green and blue. It was truly magnificent. Such a visual feast!
Skiing in Antarctica?? That sounds incredible!!
This setup is stunning!!! I really want to see any of these fabulous lights! I saw a vague glow of Aurora Australis once, which was lovely, but probably nothing compared to the new thing!
Thank you so much! What I saw wasn’t even that bright because it was prettt cloudy. I can’t imagine how incredible it would be on a clear night!
Never clicked so fast on a video after I've seen the miniature ! I'm in love with your take on a northern lights theme ! It's absolutely stunning ! I've never seen any aurorea borealis, we don't have any in France nowadays (it seems that our scottish and irish friends are able to see some), and, in addition, the luminous pollution in cities is really bad here so even if we had a little green light somewhere, we probably wouldn't be able to see it. But I'm dreaming to see them one day, It's something that fascinate me from childhood when I've read Philip Pullman's novels, especially Northern Lights, precisely. It's still one of my favorite novels now ^^
Also, you improved so much the last year in your painting technique. I'm really impressed !
Aw thank you, I’m so glad you like it! They’re truly breathtaking. I hope you can see them someday!
I have seen them when I was younger, and a very, very soft version the same time you did. I wish I would have gotten back out there because it was apparently amazing here in MN. I remember just being awestruck and I hope to see them again sometime.
Great set up and great work with Acrylic!
Hopefully you’ll get another chance before too long! It’s hard to stay out all night hoping to see something incredible. I can’t handle all nighters the way I could a decade ago lol
A few things about acrylics - they layer so so well and maintain their opacity which is awesome. They work on practically any surface which is also great. But at the same time, blending acrylics is a dream - I love it so much.
I recommend actually working on one painting / section at a time because that way you have more control in terms of wetness and drying time, if you actually wait a while, water will not help you at all with acrylics because they’re plastic based paints
And you can layer as many times and as much paint as you want without actually affecting anything
Another gorgeous spread. A true inspiration. I've been fortunate enough to see the Aurora Borealis a few times. Once in Alaska, a couple times outside Bellingham, WA and (this is no joke) north central Kansas. The Alaska ones were shades of green, then in Washington they showed orange and red. The ones in Kansas were very low on the horizon and white.
Oh how cool to have seen them in three very different ways! I hope I’ll see them many more times ❤️
Sooo pretty! I see the northern lights a lot, as I live in Norway, but they never fail to make me feel awe and appreciation for the universe. The way they dance is amazing.
I've lived the last 4 years in northern Norway, norhtern lights were a weekly occurence there, although the light show differs in strength quite a lot from day to day. But they never get any less beautiful, no matter how many times you see them.
Seeing the northern lights has been ob my "before I die" bucket list for a long time! I'm glad you got to seeing them in person. I dream of the day I do it myself 🖤
The coverpage is so beautiful.....one of my fav theme of your channel
Super gorgeous!! I’ve done a spread like this before and it feel very Canadian!
Also I do that type of calendar every month and I mark the Saturdays and Sundays with little dots to help me visualize the month 🤩
Oh I like that! And thank you ❤️
This theme is beautiful!😍🌌💫 I grew up in the Arctic North of Norway and have seen the northern lights hundreds of times, but they still never fail to mesmerize me! To this day, I love how unpredictable they are. The way they light up the sky when you least expect it✨🥰
Welp, there it is. My favorite spread of yours of this year. 💚
🥺❤️❤️❤️ Thank you!
I live in Alaska so I see them at least once a year. They are always stunning and I love how different they are every time!
I love this theme! So easy and visually appealing. I hope your December goes as smooth as it can.
Thank you so much! 🥰
IN LOVE WITH THIS THEME!! 😍😍
new patron here! i loved this theme, i would love to be able to see the northern lights once in my life.
Aw thank you! I hope you see them someday ❤️
Thank you for another lovely video! I live in the northwest of Norway, and we have the Aurora Borealis quite often during winter season. It never stops being the most beautiful sight, especially when the green and purple "flames" dance. I cry every time. :)
Aw you’re so lucky! I’ve heard they’re quite common where I’ve moved recently so I hope I’ll see them many more times ❤️
Ohh wow this is great theme to end the year! Soo pretty and dark and mysterious
Aw thank you!
I'm so lucky to live in an area where we get heavy aurora borealis activity, and I never take that for granted.
So so lucky!
You never cease to amaze me! This is absolutely gorgeous! I’m excited for my second plantmas !!!
Love the Auroras! Amazingly I saw them when I was an older teen, hanging out with friends at one of my dad’s fields. In August. In Indiana. Thank you again for another beautiful setup, nature facts, and a peek inside your mental process of planning the way you do. 💚
The most fun I’ve had in recent months is chasing these lights late at night with my awesome partner. We dressed cozy, made London fogs to go, grabbed snacks and went for long drives. Seeing them, and the joy on her face when we finally did see them, was a night to remember. Can’t beat that kind of quality time together.
You are too sweet. I love you ❤️
Stunning as always. Love the way you draw the northern lights and the colour palette. Don't get stressed to much in December and stay healthy 💚💙💚
Thank you! I’ll do my best haha 😅
I just started journaling in August and haven't even used my archer and olive journals yet. But I bought a couple from the black Friday sale and was looking for some future inspiration and wow... this is BEAUTIFUL. I love all of the facts, I didnt know any of these things before. Thank you for this!
Thank you so much! I’m happy to provide some inspo for using your new journals ❤️
i love this setup so much! Decided to this as a coverpage for the new year. Thanks for the inspiration!
Aw amazing, so glad to hear it!
It is amazing to watch and to listen 😊
This is a gorgeous setup!! I appreciate the fact that you always research about topic and let us know as well. Thank you 😊
Aw thank you! I love learning the facts for each video and sharing them with all of you ❤️
I am constantly in awe of your talent! These paintings are so beautiful, Elizabeth. I've never seen the Northern Lights in person, but it's on my life to do list! 🌌
This is so lovely! The videos of the Aurora Borealis is beautiful and amazing!
Thank you! They really are incredible to witness.
I absolutely love how the Northern Lights came out in this month's journal set-up! Seeing the Aurora Borealis has been on my bucket list. Thanks for daring to venture into New territory with a new medium. It turned out spectacular! Also, I enjoy hearing the educational parts of your videos too. Merry Christmas to you and yours!
Thank you so much, and same to you! ❤️❤️
OBSESSED with this setup. one of your collab journals is gonna be my next one!!
Aw thank you so much! That’s so exciting 🥰
I love your theme for december!! I just ordered your bullet journal for the new year and I’m so excited
Aw thank you! I hope you love it ❤️❤️❤️
Amazing setup Elizabeth, thank you so much for the video!! I will definitely recreate this one. My husband and I went to Iceland last summer, that was the most beautiful trip I never did, but it was outside of the Aurora season. We definitely plan to go back there to see the Aurora. Thanks a lot again!!
Wowza! Just gorgeous! I love how you created the aurora!
🌌 Wrote the above before I got to the end! 😂
I’ve seen them a few times they’re amazing! 🌌
They really are 🙌
Oh my goodness, this is stunning! ✨
Aw thanks 🥰
Love this set up. I'm so very excited for Plantmas again!
Thank you! Me too ❤️
Wonderful😍😍😍😍😍
One of my dream is to see the Northern lights!!!!!!

Thank you so much!
🌬
Love the lessons. Keep’m coming.

Thank you so much! ❤️
literally jaw dropping
Aw thank you!! 🥰
As always your monthly set ups blow me away! I love the northern lights and would love to see them in person one day! 🤩
Thank you so much! I hope you’ll get the chance to see them ❤️
Ones again, beautiful!! The montly overlook looks really handy!
Thank you! I hope it will help me keep my head in the busy weeks to come 😅
@@PlantBasedBride hope so to for you!
See the lights is on my bucket list. You are so incredibly talented. Love watching your set ups and all of the facts. ☄️🪐
Aw thank you! 🥺❤️❤️❤️
love love love this so much ! i've never seen them in real life, on my bucket list. thanks for this ! xoxo
This was beautiful! 🌌
So beautiful!!! I love the way these paintings turned out!! I'd love to try something similar in my book 💖
The Auroras on my bucket list for sure and I bet I'll be sobbing frozen tears of joy and awe under the lights ✨🌌✨
Oh I hope you enjoy painting them! Haha relatable ❤️
🌫 I can't tell you how much this touched me with such a wave of nostalgia; this time of year I'd be counting down to school holidays with my Grandparents, and my family would sit out at night and talk about Astronomy & they would teach me about the ancient astronomers, and all about the night sky & it's phenomenons. Those memories are all I have now of my Grandparents, so thank you for telling these wonderful facts, and showing us your beautiful artworks.
As a prior student in acrylics, there really was no 'wrong' way of working with them. Working with a wet or dry brush; wet or dry surface, it didn't matter, it could all be corrected, if it didn't work. They are a very forgiving medium. You did an amazing piece, thank you for sharing :)
I saw the Lights in Scotland a while ago, they were breathtaking :)
Oh what a beautiful series of memories. Thank you so much for sharing them with me! 🥺❤️
Wow this is one of my favourite themes can you make another gallaxy themed journal idea as i cannot find anything this much satisfying , actually i want something like if a persons opens the journal he would feel like he is in space
You are great and thanks for sharing this
💫☄️ very cool facts. Thank you for gracing me with your beautiful artwork and soothing voice.
Aw Thank you! So glad you enjoyed the video ❤️
That layout is so cool!
I’m glad you like it! I hope it’ll work for me ❤️
I love all the facts you shared! Informative and peaceful :)
This is my favorite video by far!! I’ve loved Aurora Borealis ever since I was a kid and all the facts you talked about just made me so happy!! 😍😍 needless to say, proud nerd here lol
Aw thank you! Nerds unite 🙌
Another amazing spread! Your channel never ceases to amaze! 🌃
Thank you so much! 🥰
You are so welcome! 🌌
13:08 if you want to do include white as one of your colors in your color palette... Just draw a thin black line around each of the colors ... For the white, you'd just have a circle with just the paper showing through. Sending lots of love 💖 from sunny 🌞 Arizona 🌵😷
The inexpensive acrylic paint has white mixed in. That's what has made your black sky look Grey. For glazing, use artists acrylics with pure pigment. Don't add white to it and it should do what you are looking for. From your friendly neighborhood art teacher 😁
Oh how interesting, I didn’t know that! That makes a lot of sense ❤️
🌌🎆🌠🤩 love the aurora paintings. Nice job with the acrylic paints.
Thank you so much! ❤️❤️
Stunning!!!!!
Thank you!
This look stunning, I wanna recreate it so badly 😍😍😍
You should go for it!
gorgeous work
I love this setup! My daughter (named Aurora) was glued to the screen the entire time. She especially loved that you mentioned the goddess of dawn because she’s constantly telling her little friends that her name means “dawn”, NOT “sleeping beauty” 😂😂
Aw this is so sweet! 🥺
This is soooo stunning! 😍 And PRECISELY the theme I've been planning for my December setup, too!! 😍😍😍🌌
Oh amazing!
So beautiful! I love it✨
Aw thank you! 🥰
In Scottish Gaelic we call the Northern Lights Na Fir-chlis (meaning 'Nimble Folk') and are among the ancestors who weren't allowed to become angels when Christianity came to Scotland so they fell back to earth.
those who were dashed on the rocks became echoes, those who landed in the churning sea became selkie folk (seal-like fairies), and those who stayed in the sky became Na Fir-chlis or the Northern Lights.
They tend to get riled up by the dancing and music so they start fighting for fun.
bloodstones or heliotrope found in the Hebrides are thought to be spots of their blood from their worn feet and wounds.
Those are astonishing spreads! Love them! Unfortunately I haven’t seen the northern lights but it is in my bucket list! 🌌☄️🌙
I hope you’ll see them someday!
This looks STUNNING 😍
Thank you so much!
Wow! Beautiful! 👏💕
Thank you! 🥰
Gorgeous setup. I would love to see the northern lights one day.
I hope you will!
For using a medium for the first time, it turned out stunning!! I love your art.
Thank you so much!
This is stunning and it totally making me want to pick up my paints again. Thank you for the inspiration and wonderful video 💜
Aw thank you! I’m so glad I could inspire you to jump back into painting ❤️
Your three paintings are beautiful 🌌
Thank you so much! ❤️❤️
I want this painting so pretty
This art is BEAUTIFUL
Thank you so much!
@@PlantBasedBride I mean... I love all your stuff but I've always had a soft spot for the aurora borealis since I read The Golden Compass (in the US, it's Northern Lights everywhere else)
I’m doing it in gouache. I’ve never seen the northern lights but I’d love to. I have really bad panic attacks and live in a city suburb. I need all the nature and beauty of the world. I’m also going to use the finetec water colors to create a more fluorescent effect if you know what I mean. Hanukkah is next week so a blick trip is one of my presents. I’ve been wanting to paint the northern lights. So glad I’m subscribed to you. Cause I’ve wanted to do it forever. ❤️
Holy crap your hair is gorgeous! 💕
Aw thank you so much! 🥰
i've always wanted to see the northern lights but, not yet. literally everytime they might be visible where i love it's been cloudy. your paintings came out beautiful!
I hope you’ll catch them on a clear day someday!
I love the spread and the informations you shared 😍 also love the technique, I learned something new 🤩🤩🤩 thank you for explaining the technique as usual🙏❤
Aw thank you, I’m happy to pass along a new technique!
I loved this set up! I did the same northern lights theme for last year with December and I did purple to blue gradients with my colors. But the true teal at the bottom of your set up is my favorite! The facts are amazing! I never knew Neptune my favorite planet had the Aurora's.
Oo how pretty! I didn’t have any purple paint so I decided against it but that sounds amazing ❤️
I've only seen it once and it was amazing. I really enjoyed the NaNo-vlog. I am participating myself so I love that type of content. ;) Thanks for sharing.
Did you know that we have our own lights down here in Australia? The Aurora Australis isn't common but with the right conditions it can be seen ❤
Beautiful spread. 🌌🥰
Thank you so much!
This is so stunning! Btw I loved the nanowrimo vlog, would love to see more!
Thank you so much! Oh, I’m glad you enjoyed it ❤️ I was surprised by how much fun I had putting it together!
Stunning art work! 🌌
Thank you so much!
Loving it very much. 😍 I don't get to see the lights but once things open up I hope to.
I hope you do, too!
Beautiful 🌌
Love the setup, I think I'll do something like that because with exams, december is hell haha
It goes to show how tired I am after hours on the Nano project that I saw the thumbnail, opened the video, CHECKED THE DATE IT WAS RELEASED, and thought: "oh, I can't believe I missed this spread from last year's November!" Not only this is not from last year (it's from today LOL), it's also a DECEMBER spread, not November HAHAHA I absolutely LOOOOOVE Northern Lights, it's on my bucket list to watch live ♥.♥ this theme is just absolutely dreamy!
Haha oh no, I hope Nano is going well for you!
Love the artwork & the facts! You inspire me in making my own Bujo. I am also excited to get my own Shampoo & Conditioner, thank you for the 50% off! 😁
I’ve never seen the northern lights since their not visible in Illinois. I’ve only seen pictures but this theme is beautiful 😍
Never seen this type of setup... loved the aurora theme, it is really aesthetic ✨... But I want to tell you that you, AmandaRachLee, Lootengstudio, Erin Smith and Rylee Atumn are my favourite bujo girls !! Love you 😍
Aw thank you! ❤️❤️
gorgeous choice of colour for the lights! I live in the GTA but wasn't able to go out when the Northern Lights were visible a couple weeks back T_T
I've used acrylic a lot in the past and have watered it down, but the glazing does create a much stronger effect than watercolour would. My tip is the smoother the layers the better because once there's texture it's harder to work on top of to get a smoother shape/line
Thank you so much! Oo yeah, I think that would help. My watercolour paper has a bit of texture to it which wasn't ideal!
How do you think of such amazing, creative themes every month?! Incredible! xx
Aw thank you! I do my best ❤️
This is beautiful ✨ as is every theme from you :)
Aw thank you 🥰
Wow ... so beautiful ...
Thank you!
Stuning!
Thank you so much!
Ugh! I just did my cover page yesterday for December! Totally would've done this as well, but I'll just push it to January 😛
I’m sure the cover page you created is amazing!
Would love to see that in person one day, hopefully. :)
Really beautiful, as always. :)
I hope you will!
